Mark Koernke and his co-host Don discussed themes of dedication, long-term planning, and personal accomplishment versus distraction. They emphasized the importance of sustained focus and commitment to goals rather than fleeting attention spans, drawing parallels to how the founding fathers fought for independence and how adversaries like the Rothschilds plan across generations. The show featured extended commentary on preparedness, the dangers of complacency, and the need to educate others about threats to freedom. Segments included product advertisements for firearms and tactical gear, a discussion of night vision technology and snow conditions, tributes to deceased public figures, and recommendations for the Firefly television series as an allegory for government overreach.

He took off his three cornered hat and speaking low to me he said, We fought a revolution to secure our liberty. We wrote the Constitution as a shield from tyranny. For future generations this legacy we gave. In this the land of the free and home of the brave. The freedoms we secured for you, we hoped you'd always keep. The tyrants labored endlessly while your parents were asleep. Your freedom's gone, your courage lost. You're no more than a slave. In this, the land of the free, the brave. You buy permits to travel and permits to own a gun. Permits to start a business or to build a place for one. On the land that you believe you own, you pay a yearly rent. Although you have no voice in saying how the money's spent. Your children must attend a school that doesn't educate. And your Christian values can't be taught according to this. You read about the current news in a regulated press. And you pay a tax you do not owe to please the IRS. Your money is no longer made of silver nor of gold. You trade your wealth for paper so your life can be controlled. You pay for crimes that make our nation turn from God and shame. You've taken some. You've traded in your name. You've given government control to those who do you harm so they could burn down churches and seemingly farm and keep our country Put men of God in jail harass your fellow countrymen while corrupted courts prevail Your public servants don't uphold the solemn oaths. They've sworn and your daughters visit so their children Your leaders send artillery and guns to foreign shores and send your sons to slaughter fighting other people's wars. Can you regain the freedoms for which we fought and died? Or don't you have the courage or the faith to stand with pride? And are there no more values for which you will fight to save? Or do you wish your children to live in fear and be a slave? O sons of the Republic, arise, take a stand. defend the Constitution, the Supreme Law of the land, preserve our great Republic and each God-given right, and pray to God to torture freedom burning bright. As I awoke, he vanished in the mist for whence he came. His words were true, not free, but we have ourselves to blame. For even now as tyrants trample each God-given right, we only watch and tremble, too afraid to stand and fight. If he stood by your bedside to dream while you were asleep and wondered what remains of the freedoms he'd fought to keep, what would be your answer if he called out from the grave, you might want to light up Channel 29 and let people listen to the intelligence report as they drive through your area, you know, your side of the creek, your chunk of the hill, your side of the pond. Beautiful day, and you know, moving, it's the time of year now, Mark, that if you try to put a shovel in the ground, out in particular places, reach for that pickaxe first. And if you don't have that concrete in the ground in the next day or two, you might as well wait till springtime. When frozen ground ain't no fun and I can testify to that. Making things flat is the most at the perimeters, you know that where the fords would street, you know those guys I don't need to describe that but again, everybody has their own little urgencies Everybody has something that they they have to get done I I said to Nancy the other day mark right around the beginning of this month around December 1st I said to Nancy that you know, there's so many things I'd like to do and I want to do but there's so many things to do and it's true isn't it but again I bring this up. I'm not just telling you about Don and moaning about it. I enjoy getting something done, that feeling of accomplishment. But there are so many people that will run this direction for a moment and then the next and then another. They'll sit there and talk to you about anything and all they know about it is the surface, the fingernail, the scratching, the veneer of it. That goes over to, it's been said many different ways, but you know, a whole lot of people's attention span is wider than it is long. But again, run back to that, get something done. Run back to that feeling of accomplishment. Because you know what, we could pick that and so many different Oh, avenues right now. Everybody felt, voted for Donnie, felt real good when he, they had that feeling of, we got something done, we beat Hillary. That was, that's exhilarating, isn't it? It becomes a question mark after that. What's he gonna do? And we point out that, well, look at what he's bringing in this guy, and he's bringing in that Romney fellow who basically told him to, you know, go swim with a shark. Right? In other words and terms, but go swim with a shark. No. So, you know, when we look at a particular thing and think, this is going to be done in a certain time, or this is going to happen because, or that's the right man for the job, we need to look at it long in heart, don't we? And we need to dissect that. All the little things that are going to happen between here and there and that end to where that gratification comes at, feeling of accomplishment, like imagine. Imagine going off to war, fighting the king, and coming back and sitting and watching this government form and reading the Constitution for the first time. Imagine the pride in that, that feeling of accomplishment. Wow! Imagine that. Big things can be done again. When we look at, oh, you know, they take, they, I wonder if there's a particular word I could work on right now with that big things can be done again and the things they take from us or the things that they shovel us because you know they think we're mushrooms. You know the implication there, right? You know they call that war for independence, they call it the American Revolution. There might have been a few that called it a revolution in that time frame, but they called it in that time frame the war for independence from the king. The war for independence that's only backed up with in 1812, what did they call it? History, they lie to you when they tell you it's the war of 1812. And that's what the colonists, the Americans called it at the time. They lie to you, the historians that say that. At that time, Many of the people were still alive. Or they listened to the stories from their fathers and their uncles and their brothers who fought for that freedom. What was spent and what was. That's how they could call that second war, the War of 1812, the Second War for Independence because it was another war with Britain and oppression. So sometimes when you think that, man, this is the greatest thing since sliced bread and man has not written words so beautiful. of a government, ever before, nor limited that government's ability, ever before, putting shackles and chains on it. It's never happened before. Such a beautiful thing. But look it, oh, do the myth. What was it? In 1880 something, the war ended. A couple years later they had the Constitution. You know, let's call that 15 years and then 12. Not even 30 years later, the fight was on again. So again, we can think that we've got great victories and we've done this, but you cannot stray from the course. If you turn your back on the henhouse, the fox will be there if not tonight, tomorrow or next. But if you turn your back on the henhouse, eventually the fox will come back. If you run from place to place, one of the things that made me think of this mark was that old kink song about the fashion butterfly flirting from this to that, whatever is in fashion today or tomorrow, and that futility, that frivolousness of time, that lack of attention span is applied right there. And, you know, there's plenty of people that would say that, well, nobody wants to just talk about one thing for an hour. Or nobody wants, let's dissect that, let's cut it in half. Nobody wants to talk about one thing for half an hour. Let's do it again. Nobody wants to talk about one thing for 15 minutes. And you know the ad people? They boil you down to somewhere between 12 and 28 seconds and they hope you see that time frame about 14 times. There's different philosophies on the time links and the amount of times you have to see things inside those mind controlling people's world, the admin's world. But they figure that you only have to see something for a small duration of time because your attention span is very small. And because of that, you have to see it again, the same commercial, tomorrow, next day, three times in one show or whatever, I don't know. But they figure these things and they sit down and they write mathematical formulas for them, much like how far will a military boot go? There's formulas for that. How long will a ton of food last? These are basic things, you guys. But when they sit and figure on it over and over like that, think about it. It's planning. We've talked about this, that's preparation. But that's not just that instant gratification. That's not just, oh man, look at the pile of beans we got for the soldiers today. Because the pile of beans are going to be gone in a day or a week. You know you have to bring more. That's that ongoing thing. You can be on the verge of something and, well, You know, we just scraped the whole of the Arizona and man she's as fast as she ever was and next month we're going to take her out for maneuvers. You can be on the verge of something, something that you've looked forward to all your life and have just the flats kicked out from it. But you got to get back up. You got to have that, oh I fell down, I'll just pay attention to my knee now. Because there's that attention span thing again. But there's something beyond the attention span. There's that dedication. That word, you hardly hear it anymore, do you? That willingness to, you know, go out in the cold and do whatever. That willingness to go out in the jungle and do whatever. That dedication. That willingness to grab that body bag. And we're not leaving it. That dedication. The only gratification from something like that is I got Frank home. You'll never know it. I brought him home. That is so selfless. Think about that. Now we've gone from, oh, what we do, what we pay attention to, what we have interest in, to what we're willing to spend ourselves on. Because think about that. That is a logical progression, isn't it? That is a logical progression. And when they can get you thinking about, oh, What's the number one song today? And how are the Lions doing in the baseball game? Aren't the Tigers retired yet? And all kinds of things like that. And what about Donald Trump? And what about this and that and the other thing? And the stock market's going on and I could just run down the list. What about that television show? And oh, you got the latest sneakers and bell bottoms are coming back. We could just, you know, maybe bell bottoms aren't coming back. But we could just run down the list of distractions, the things that they bring to you and us, and the people who choose not to be so dedicated. When you don't pick something to do, it's easy for someone to say, let's do this for a while, let's do that for a while, watch this, let's go over here. That's that fullest life again. But again, you know, there's expectations, I guess, in different people's lives and different scales thereof. Because think about it, you know, here's something we haven't brought to the hour. I'll quit in just a moment because some people don't like to listen to things for half an hour. But I'll quit in just a moment. But there's that thought line, I haven't brought it to the hour in a long time. You know, it's a broad brush statement to say, even if he's just getting out of a car, he's wrecked. and the cops are on the way. A drunk doesn't have a problem in the world until he wants to change. Think about that. And it's a basic truism. But if you're not paying attention to anything, you can look at this and you can look at that and they can get your head spinning so fast, pretty soon you're kind of dizzy. You know, like the first time you had a beer, and they want to keep you that way. Whether it's the latest widget, whiz-bang tool, or toy, or car, or whatever. The television show. It doesn't have to be one thing because if it's one thing you start to think that, man I've been watching this for half an hour, I've been paying attention to this for an hour and is this what I'm gonna do? And either you catch an interest in it or you turn your back on it, right? People don't sit and watch a TV show because they, I used to like it. People don't go on and buy a brand new car because it was, I wanted one They were really in style last year but something else is really in style now and they don't buy because well that used to be in style. Think about the ways we are driven and the ways we can break free from that and when you do that your expectations and your personal rewards, those gratifications mentioned earlier, I did this, that is mine now or we did this like we built this American government. That was brought in earlier in the thought line, wasn't it? Again, there are still great things to be done. All you have to do is pay attention. Dedicate yourself to it. Get out. How does that go? Here comes a cliche. Get out and make it happen. True wisdom, isn't it? Sometimes you'll find that, oh gee, can't be done like that. And they say so, and we've got to do it all over again. Well, because that goes back over to freedom and that goes back over to sometimes, if you're trying to do something and you haven't done it before, or you're trying to do something and take it to a higher level, someone who has already done it says, look, this is a better way to do it. And because we've been doing it this long, we want everybody to do it. And now you're talking about standards. But now when we look at standards and measures, one of the first hours I did many years ago on a Saturday, someone famous had died that week, some big Hollywood star or something. And I talked about standing at a funeral. And I posed the question, what would you have them say when you're gone, when you're there in the box or you're there in the brass little urn thing? You know, that's becoming more and more fashionable, I guess. It's not... I don't want to go there, but that's becoming more and more fashionable. What would you have them say about you? He played a... He was a hell of a golfer. He was a hell of a guy or... Or... Wow. I really enjoyed talking with him. I really... I really... He... When you should have seen some of the things he did. Or it was just pleasant just to hang out with that person. Or... That man saved my life. What would you have them say about you? And I'll tell you, because this goes back over to the beginnings and this goes back over to participation and that sense of gratification. I brought this to the hour a number of times. I've brought this to the hour in years. Some people think it's like bragging. But when I was coming up, before I was a certified diver, I was a snorkeler. And I'd wade into the lake and I'd do that thing that divers aren't supposed to do. I'd snorkel up and down along the shoreline and out there and over there around that weed bed and see the biggest bass I ever saw when I was about 14 years old. I mean as long as your arm. A bass as long as your arm. You guys just strike down the side of them probably two and a half inches wide. But because I was out there in what Jefferson would call that animated contest, Daffy Duck, that animated contest or the rabbit or the pig because I was out there in one summer in just one summer I was able to save two children's lives from drowning that's overwhelming that is a sense of accomplishment that you can't measure there's nothing else that compares to that it really is if you've ever done that you know that for something like that to happen to a like an 11 and 12 year old kid that's a big thing in your life that gives you a measure but then again that's something that's hard to top it really and truly is so you try to get those regular continuous things that the American does or that the person who wants today to be better than yesterday but again even sometimes just remembering that can make a better day but you guys Whether you're building a boat in your garage and you're sharing that with your son or your uncle or you're doing it all by yourself or you're building a house or you're restoring a car or you're learning how to be a gunsmith, man I can take that gun apart and that variant of it, that contract gun over there, when I take it apart I can recognize the differences but they're supposed to be blueprint guns. That gun is supposed to be exactly like that gun there. And I'm supposed to be able to take parts out of it and put it in that gun. But when I take them apart simply by looking at them, I know that I can't. So again, we can talk about all kinds of ways to, again, better today than I was yesterday. Or we're closer to that goal today than we were yesterday because the other side looks at it like that. We are closer today to our goals than we were yesterday. that comes from that make haste slowly and what's the next line? It's been heard here before. But even Mr. Talbot, Skip Talbot would say, you know, when he, a world champion shooter, when he would go to a shooting contest, he didn't go there with the thought line to beat all those guys. He didn't go there to show off. He didn't go, he went there to prove to himself that he was better to date. than he was yesterday. That whole world that what we as men, grown men perceive as challenges, can be turned into personal challenges. As example right there, I want to be better today than I was yesterday. I want to be one whole day, the minimum. Sometimes you take great leaps forward, but today I want to be one whole day closer to my goal. When you try to implement things like that, what was that phrase that happened that was said earlier Mark? Great things can still happen. We'll make it happen. Yep. Our side. That's the one thing to remember. We outnumber them. We've got the thinkers, they've got the stinkers and the bad guys realize it too. Go ahead. Thank you Mark. But again you guys, that long-term thing. That's part of the thought line trying to be presented here. They're desperately trying to be presented here. The other side, they look over generations. When the Rothschild, you know, I don't remember the original family name, they took the Rothschild name from the name of the father's bar, the red shield, Rothschild bar and saloon. When the Rothschilds came in, and planned this and planned that and executed those plans as an example. How did they make money when Napoleon lost? Look into history and find out for yourself. Even deeper, how did they get hold of... Well, there's... I don't want to tell you too much. But one day the bank was run by someone... And just a few days later, the banks were run by someone else. So again, if... We talk on communications Tuesday. We urge you to talk. I will use a, you know, many times I'll drag a personal example. There's three syllables in that word. I knew about or found out about the New World Order. All of the things that, you know, we talk about, you've heard it said, some people know that something's wrong. And finally somebody shows you. Mr. Otto put the icing on the cake, just built it through it in the oven and all of that. And finally, yeah, wow. I see it now. And when I turned to my father and said, hey, do you know about this? Do you know about the skull and bones? Do you know about the Illuminati? Yeah, I know all about it. I'll give you a book on it. And he gave me this book, the Illuminati in the 666. And it's a tremendous book. It tells of history and religion and whatnot. And I asked my father, how long have you known about this? Oh, I went to a John Birch meeting in 1968 and I've been audited by the income IRS ever since. Now he didn't directly answer me, but with that answer he was telling me I was trying to become awakened like 1966 or 1968. He was looking for different information than the standard American. But when someone else told me about the New World Order and the Illuminati and other things and I turned to my father, Father, you should know about this, Father, have you heard about this? He knew about it, but he did not tell me. Now to this day he won't answer that, that question, why? To this day he won't answer that, he's like you and me and many other, you know, men. He's stubborn. I don't know why he won't answer that, but I could not figure out why he would not tell me these things. Perhaps this is a portion of why I sit and on Tuesdays urge you to talk. Don't hold back. Talk to everybody. We went past Thanksgiving here and you probably heard the urgings. Well, you know, hey, when the family is around, you know, some people are gonna, Uncle Ernie's gonna say, I don't wanna hear it ever again and it's the same old stuff every year, but talk. Because that exhibits that earlier mentioned word, dedication, that continuity. dedication kind of lends to believability over time. I don't know if you've ever recognized that in your life. Sometimes, and I don't say that because few people do. You guys, sometimes we see examples and they might play out in a moment. They might play out in 12 minutes or 40 minutes or an afternoon. And when you walk away from that, you know the definitions of what you were seeing far, far deeper. I don't know how to explain that many of... It's called an epiphany, an enlightenment, and a sudden awakening. But many of us have experienced in one way, shape, or form, you know. It's like you're trying to get playing guitar. or a musical instrument across the board and you're just plodding along and you go to sleep and you wake up and you're plodding along and you go to sleep and you wake up and it might be eight weeks, it might be eight years and all of a sudden this goes back to the great leaps forward mentioned earlier all of a sudden you do something and someone sitting in a room says that was beautiful think about it That's an exhibit, whether it's over a great length of time. That's a simple exhibition of dedication. And when it's recognized by something else, then comes that, here it comes again, that feeling of accomplishment. Think about it. But now we're talking about things that, well, you know, playing guitar or restoring a car, or building a house or a boat. But think about this, these things can be applied upward, can't they? Didn't you, if you voted for Trump, didn't you feel good? Didn't you feel like you got something done when you heard that, well, Trump won? And that's something even today, I would question that if you really know, can you grasp that sense of accomplishment because we know that they could fiddle with the vote either way. So they denied us that, haven't they? Think about it. that has been denied us now this goes over to that another progression because you know they didn't even know what they were they were we're just fighting for independence and they won and the arguments back and forth and people were killed and and they make plays about them and glorify them now people were killed over what kind of government and how it would be structured and what the money would be think about it and then Well, things got nice and calm for a while and well, along come the bankers again and along come everybody else, the lawyers. You know, after the war for independence, there was hardly a lawyer in the land. For more than 10 years, did you know that? How did things get settled down, you might say? Well, the people weren't so litigious as they are now and many times the local sheriff, the local justice of the peace would settle them. that particular argument. And if it went really sideways or haywire, put any word you want there, well then you got things like the Hatfields and McCoys. How does that song go Mark? Feudin' like the Hatfields and McCoys. And granted every once in a while the sheriff might find one of them and take his gun for, you can come down to the sheriff's office next week, Clem, and you can pick up your gun. I just don't want you going over Marshall's house today with your gun. Sheriff's and the justice of the peace settled things, settled now. Why? Because for almost, Oh, for more than 10 years after the American Revolution, hardly a lawyer would show his face. That's one way to put it, and it's a very apt description of the times. Eventually they weaseled their way back in here, didn't they? Because, well, people started looking at other things and people looked away from their freedom and paid attention to their hearth and how many cattle they had and other things and were growing and, isn't this a wonderful nation? And, well, as they were enjoying, as they were living that feeling of accomplishment, it was being robbed from them. It was being robbed from you now. We can talk about, you know, there are many of you that know this. This is, in the Patriot world, this is common knowledge. But we bring this to you so that, well, here it's arranged in a way that, you know, how does that go? And I don't even, I don't really shouldn't, I will invoke this. Because when, when, when the son of the creator said, prophet is not recognized in this hometown, think about that. I don't sit here and claim to be a prophet and I don't put that on you. But there's a great analogy there. Many times if you're sitting there calling the truth, I know Frank and Frank. You know, it's like your brother-in-law and you're trying to tell him about the New World Order. So this prophet thing, it's been said before, take an hour of the intelligence report with Mark on it and put it on a disk and give it to your coworker who can drive home and listen to it. or put it on one of them little SD cards and give it, send it along with some other things, this Christmas for a gift. So maybe, you know, we, this spot line has demonstrated, Mark, we've brought this, I tried to get Debbie to shoot this gun or that gun and try to get her to be better at it and, you know, you lose your patience sometimes. And then we went to a concealed carry class and before that class was over, by instruction and she's not paying attention to Don. She's not paying attention to a certified instructor and before the first group of shooting was done she was shooting better than the man on either side of her to the point that the instructor made it a point not to be redundant with the use of the word to come over and tell me so. Now that's a good feeling. There's that feeling, sense of accomplishment in him. And that sense of pride, well that's good, I'm glad I'm in me. But again, that goes over to sometimes it's hard to teach the people that are close to you. Sometimes it's hard to get them to change their mind. This is another reason why we urge you to talk out in the world. Because, well, they might be hearing it from their brother-in-law and they might be hearing it from their cousin. And when they hear it from someone, they don't even know. They're either going to, well, completely ignore it. That guy's a kook. How many times have you heard that? Or it might be part and parcel of the Mr. Otto thing. You've shown me enough over time and I would be a fool not to put these images together and create the truth. Think about it. We urge you to talk. Now with that, we urge you to add that dedication. And if you're still listening, Sauer and Mark hasn't hardly said, but maybe 14 words. I thank you for this time, Mark. We're headed to Christmas. Don, I'll tell you what. I got a little have a treat. I have a little bit of a Christmas treat. Where can you, if you look long enough, you can find combinations of things that are like, well, you get the holiday season and you get something else in the process too. And for Angela, she found something for us. She said, Mark, you wanted to play Christmas music. So she sent us this recommendation. So Angela, we want to say thank you. And Donald, appreciate it. You got to pay attention. This is kind of a slow buildup of this song, but it is a holiday Christmas piece. and a firefly song into the process. That's right. And again, up into the black. For everybody out there, look outside. Down the ground. Did you get any at all? Oh, there's a powder in there. Yes, there is. Yeah, same thing. Not real heavy, although it is still coming down a flake at a time, just a little bit. Yeah, the ground is freezing now. I gotta say something. I found out something here. You gotta watch now with, and again, it's a changing world. It's not a surprise. Not all the companies had this problem, but I went on and bought windshield wipers for one of the old cars, for that little, you know, old Pinto Mustang, right? It's got a standard Ford post on it, right? You know, remember the rod with the little kitten on the top and you just plug it in and it's done. You'd think, oh, that'll take a second. Except that out of the first two sets I bought, I went to one place and we bought a more expensive set. I figured, hey, I want to go all weather, I'm going to do this. And I'll just spend a month and I won't have to worry about it for a long time because it's not going to be driving very much. And then it was like, OK, I looked on the back and there's five different flavors of connectors. And that one of them was for the Ford. And so then I went and got another pair. Not one of the connectors for that one. And again, it's their Rain Dan. It was, what's the name of the one? They're both named brand. So today I ran out real quick because you can't have a wiper not on a vehicle. I don't care what it is. Every vehicle we got runs free off. If it's running, it's got to be ready to go down the road all seasons because we're going to be in the fight one way or another. And so I went out and sure enough, should have stayed local anyway, one little guy's here. But not all of them have every fixture. So just a little reminder on that. This is where again, I did that. Well, of course it's got to be there. In other words, it's got the GM post, the side post type, you know, you've got the side pin perpendicular to the end of the rod. That's there. And several others I've never seen, which are obviously the newest connectors, and they're all just more confusing for the sake of the benefit of being different so you have to buy something special. That's all it is. And so they've done that. But unfortunately, beware, because the Ford pin system, which is on a lot of the trucks out there, a lot of you guys are tactical vehicles. You got any of the Ford trucks, you're going to be, well duct tape works, but I don't want to do that and I want to have to, you know, if I'm going to spend money, find the right part. By the way, buy the right part anyway, that way they'll make more hopefully, right? Yeah. Yeah, especially when they're new on the shelf. So that was a surprise. I didn't expect that today. But another thing, well, we've got a few minutes here at Don Night Vision Technology. Look outside, guys. It's... that time of year and we still down here we got a little bit of white which is always great for working outside at night because you get the city reflection and the you know whatever you know starscape, moonscape and so it's not as dark as you'd expect but there's still those deep spots and it's a little harder to see farther out. The night vision makes a difference. Don, jump in there. How can we get hold of you? And tell us about the webpage please. Well if you live in an area where there's snow on the ground you know that the benefits that it gives at night. And if you've got any light, well, there's this word called occlusion. And you might not be able to see something directly, but when you see the white patches disappear behind it, because there's something between you and those white patches, you know there's something there. Again, snow can be a big benefit to the naked eye. Snow is also a big help to night vision. We mentioned probably 15 years ago when ITT sent out a bulletin to everybody they had on record. purchased a third generation piece from them, to be cautious in the snow. Now one of the things that someone will do if you've got a pair of binoculars or even a monocular on a tether, like it goes around your neck. Binoculars, they'll turn them on and they'll look around and then they'll rest them on their chest. They're still running, they're looking down at the white snow. And if there's any moon, well, we ask you not to point your night vision at the moon, right? So there were a couple of people who were doing this and put a whole lot of hours on a piece of night vision in a rather short time and collected a warranty. And when ITT, builder of that third generation tube, did the research and found out, they sent that bulletin out about 15 years ago. So if you're out there in the snow with your piece of night vision and there's any moon in the sky you don't want to just dangle that piece of night vision on your chest so it's pointed at the snow so it's just gathering up gobs and gobs of light and it's like going up the expressway in a pinto like in second gear and nobody's passing you you won't do that for a long time right? good time but not a long time at any rate but I'd bring that because the snow is out and the snow helps first second and third and fourth generation and doesn't do anything for the thermal except give it a uniform background. Which is a good thing because then anything else tends to stand out. So the snow can be good for the land for green screen. If you want to see thermal or green screen or even the digital which the snow will enhance its light gathering abilities because it's just bouncing light up off the snow. Go over to the website that's Y-D-T-O-E dot U-S that's Yankee Delta, Tango, Oscar, Echo, you know, U-S. digital and green screen and thermal and gun sites in all categories and viewers in the digital and well viewers and binoculars and binoculars in the rest of the categories and back to thermal the gun site mount off of a Thor I guess you can sell it as a viewer and that's what they're doing so there's a Thor viewer now and I can off I can source other pieces of thermal that are viewers But I am of the mind that you guys, if you're going to hold it in your hand, if you want a viewer, why not buy a gun sight because you can still hold it in your hand and use it like a viewer. But it is multi-purpose. It'll do more than just see your enemies coming. You know what I mean? It's good to have multiple abilities. So if you go over to the website, ydtoe.us, you'll see goggles and gun sights and green screens and Digital and thermal and monoculars and binoculars. If you have any questions about anything you see like what's the real price, give me a call. My number is 231-796-8458. Again, 231-8458. The website is ydtoe.us. You'll see thermal. You know, you can use thermal day and night. You'll see green screen, dedicated night vision, and you'll see the digital. You can use the digital day and into the night or as the sun comes up and into the day. But when it's really dark out with the digital, you're just going to want to turn on your illuminator. We've talked about that before. I'll bring it up again. You know, if you're walking around with a piece of night vision and you have your illuminator on, the guy over there with a piece of night vision, you look to him like the guy with naked eyes walking around with a flashlight. I see someone over there with a flashlight. only it's invisible light, it's coming from an infrared emitter, an illuminator, and the guy over there with a piece of night vision, well he can see it too, just like it enhances your vision, it enhances his. So there's that cautionary about turning on the illuminator, it's like, well it's kinda like one ping, one ping only. This is my best Sean Connery, and speaking of old people, John Glenn died today. very much an anti-gunner. Hey, but at least he was one of our astronauts. He was one of our astronauts. Yeah. Speaking of other people that got real high, Greg Lake died today of Emerson, Lake and Palmer. You might remember that trend setting that cutting edge rock and roll band from the middle 70s, Emerson, Lake and Palmer died today. How bad I didn't hear. Tremendous talent. He died of cancer. He looked like a different person in the last couple of years. He was slim all his life. In the last couple of years he just rounded right out, probably from all of the things they were putting in him. He said he might have gone the other way and they said, well you only got so much time. He said, well I guess it's time to skip the diet. Maybe. Maybe. I guess it's time to eat anything you want. And sky's the limit. And I guess I will have that second dessert after all. A hell of a doctor's, right? You're right. That could very well be it. Because many people, they just turn to bones. They look like skin and bones when they're here. So instead it's more like, here's how it works. I'm out of here. Before we go, one of my favorite scenes from Firefly, you'll appreciate it if you're picturing the scene as soon as you hear the words here. It's not very long, but it's right at the end of the duel between the arrogant bugger and Mal. And the bad guy is on the ground. And of course, you can't just leave him there, you gotta kill him. Well, maybe. Watchin'... Well, listen. He's a great man. Every time you hear that, ugh, he's stabbin' him with a sword. Of course, the tradition is you were supposed to kill one or the other as you duel to the death, right? Well, I guess I'm just okay. Bye. By the way, you can't just leave him there bleeding on the ground. It's like, oh, okay, well, watch this. Double stuck. Again, for everybody out there, if you want to watch Firefly, good holiday treat, I'm going to warn you, once you start watching it, you're going to want to watch more. It is definitely a, if you like, shoot-a-bops, it's a gun series. And then they cut off a season. That's right. Oh yeah. Well, again, because the network did everything it could. It's really funny, that's why there's that little joke in the song about Fox. is that they really fumbled the ball because this particular one had a major following and was doing really well. And that was even with the jerky way that they networked foolishly, you know, presented it because they screwed up the intent of how it was supposed to be shown by showing it at a sequence. And it still did well. Everybody was able to sort it out anyway. So, especially it helps you understand And by the time you get to the movie Serenity, then it explains you really what government is all about. Oh, they were flying through space and you can understand portion of the title. It's a real pretty song. The title song, I think there's a part of it that says, burn the land and boil the sea. But you can't take the sky from me. Freedom! Well, first of all, that's probably the semi-auto model that's out there, right? That was my question, yeah. Yes, that's what they're going they stop production remember I talked about this about two months ago They buy we found it. We're looking at it and even as again the price the It's not a bad price for them But you know to be quite honest you can buy two brownings and almost three brownings go to the center fire systems comm You can buy a browning belt fed steel link 308 gun for how more than half that prior less than half that price and it's simple with dirt. Oh yeah, brownings are... and there's tons of brownings. If it was a... and here's another thing. Okay, you're looking for a belt fed to go on a vehicle mount? No, yeah, this one was... I don't know, they have one on North East. I'll tell you what, remember what I said before? Here's a quick solution for that to give you a chain fed gun with a lot of fire power. Not as much penetration, but go to CenterFireSystems.com and look at their 9mm AR-15 upper belt fed receivers. $1,800. $1,600 if you buy the cheaper one. That's why I call that. You know what I mean? Yeah, I would go the... rather than spending that kind of money, I'd rather have three guns to put on it. Remember we talked about a battle wagon? You could grab... you could put one Browning 30 in the middle up front and put a couple of belt-fed nines left and right and you got yourself a lot of teeth. But for less money. You still have money left over for ammo and for more belts, more links. Seriously. In fact, if you're looking for a learning curve, I would buy the belt fed AR-15 first. I'd go to CenterFireSystems.com, go look at their AR-15 uppers, and you'll find the belt feeds. There's two versions. The lesser one does not have a quick barrel gen. You can carry a lot of firepower, like that. We already have one unit here, four of them. They're really happy with them. Here's the cautionary. I want to make sure it's an aluminum. I would that one if you were gonna do it for a cruise ship gun roof gun? I would, I, they only stop production on them. They have subs for sale, but most of these are staking, but they got lots of production for sure. I tell people there's not too many out there. So would go somewhere else. An AR with a 70 ground or 125 rounds. 50 Doom on a Nevada mag. 100-round mags. That's the other source. Put some distance on an AR with a heavy barrel. 50 to 20. That's a nice gun. Anyway, we gotta go. Quick question at the end of the hours, but it's more than... He's guardian, communication. A family owned business located in the heart of Ohio's country.

The wildflower is an old country classic. new popularity. The song isn't any more popular but the flowers doing real good. That day and most of that night, trying to find my brother Bill. I caught up with him about 6 o'clock the next morning, making him singin' on the windmill. Every next day, we picked a bunch of them weeds and we put them in the sun to dry. Muff and cleaned them all, put them in the corn cob. Woodflowers got to be happy. We never seen no horn. We thought it was kinda handy. Take a trip and never leave the park. They go puff that wildwood and weed, and next thing you know, you're just wandering around behind the little animals. Things got come to an end, why would we? Why does a sheet do the we? Sit down, that sack seeps.
